morning work
By sharon77

Clip to ScrapBook   
I also gave up on morning work where they had to do things that I should check over. When my students come in (2nd grade), they do their lunch count, unpack, and then get a sheet off of my stool or read silently. The sheets are normally word searches or crossword puzzles related to something we are studying or the season. The kids know up front that they are to work on these on their own - I won't help them find words in the morning. Sometimes I put out a seasonal coloring sheet for fun and to work on those small motor skills.
